Draft Draft 2020 Draft & Undrafted Free Agent Thread: Part VIII

[Chytilmania]

What about this....Lapierre falls to 22 and has a monster season then the Rangers trade him for Eichel.

 

[broadwayblue]

I still feel like it’s a possibility we trade down to the teens. I know we don’t have a second rounder this year or next but I think we have Four 3Rds These next two drafts correct?

You mean trade up into the teens? I believe you are correct about the extra 3rds.

The concussions worry me.

Concussion, not concussions.

 

[duhmetreE]

Concussion, not concussions.

I dont know the story but if was 1 ONE concussion it shouldn't be a problem. If it was 3... not good

 

[Savant]

First name Maverick?

Better blood lines though.

 

[True Blue]

Hes overrated inside of the top 10 but it would be stupid for him to fall that far.

Do not agree that he is overrated in the top 10, but yeah. No way he falls that far.

Oops yeah sorry I don’t know I said trade down

 

[True Blue]

Rangers have Three 7 rounders that must be fun. The world is your oyster at that point that’s when you gamble.

Seems like a good spot to take a shot and find your Reaves.

 

[True Blue]

The kid is a top 10 talent in this draft. He’s off to a fantastic start already. You’re just about guaranteed a successful draft before you even make the pick at 22. You have ehat’s Pretty much considered the deepest system in the league. You selected #2 last year. If you can’t take the risk under these circumstances, when do you?

I would rather have someone that is much closer to being able to take regular shifts (even on third line) like a Grieg or Amirov than take that much of a swing. It's not like there was only one injury. There were multiple and can be more susceptible in the future.

 

[True Blue]

Concussion, not concussions.

One definitive one and then.....something else. Maybe a concussion, maybe not. Could be related to the original one which makes me worry about him taking a hit in the future.

Hasn't it been determined that it was a cervical dislocation or whatever Sid's neck injury was 5 or so years ago? I think there was an article in the Athletic written about it.

Something like that, but wasn't there a chance it was related to the concussion? Cannot recall. Also, wasn't there a third injury as well?

[NYRangers0723]

Anybody have some predictions/wants for our mid round picks? Granted we keep both 3rds what players are you looking for us to get there?

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

What about this....Lapierre falls to 22 and has a monster season then the Rangers trade him for Eichel.

I think any hope of Lapierre falling are now dead thanks to his great start. Could see him going top 15 easily.

 

[Mac n Gs]

Something like that, but wasn't there a chance it was related to the concussion? Cannot recall. Also, wasn't there a third injury as well?

Here was the article that went into detail on his injury history:
After draft year of injury and mystery, Hendrix Lapierre has something to prove

Brett Berard pls.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

I think there is a better chance of Lundell falling to 22 than Lapierre at this point.. (but obviously i don't see either of them coming close to us)

 

[EdJovanovski]

 

[NYRangers0723]

. Yeah true. I think it’s possible one may be there in the 16-18 range if there are some early surprise picks

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

If Perreault is there at 22 I want him. Even though he is like the opposite of what the Rangers usually go for.

 

[Savant]

Not going to drive myself crazy guessing who will or won’t be at 22. Around pick 20 I’ll figure out who I want there.

 

[Leetch3]

I think there is a better chance of Lundell falling to 22 than Lapierre at this point.. (but obviously i don't see either of them coming close to us)

i don't think either come close to us...be shocked if lundell makes it past 10

 

[Edge]

First pick is off the table for the Rangers.

22nd pick likely to be kept as of right now.

 

[DutchShamrock]

There is no way Perfetti doesn't go top-5 IMO

I don't know. Yzerman has been linked to Drysdale and Sanderson had rumors with Ottawa.
